Playback
Theatre is an original form of improvisational theatre in which audience
or group members tell stories from their lives and watch them enacted
on the spot. Whether in theatres, workshops, educational or clinical
settings, playback theatre draws people closer as they see their common
humanity.

Playback
Theatre was founded in 1975 in the Mid-Hudson Valley in New York by
Jonathan Fox with Jo Salas and the original Playback Theatre company.
Since then, Playback Theatre has reached hundreds of settings and
locations. A support organization, the International Playback Theatre
Network, provides connection and information for Playback practitioners
on five continents.
